what is actually yahoo mail’s spam filtering technique?
Monday, December 28th, 2009I need to know the actual Spam Filtering technique of yahoo mail. Because I want to be sure my mail will go to the in-box of someones (not in my buddy lists) mail (not to the spam folder). I will not put any image or any link to the mail body. And it also will be small. But I astonished sometimes small email is also treated as spam. Just see the following two.
1. "I want to say you something. bye"
2. "I want to say you something. one day I told you not to go so far from me. but now I am telling to go. please go, go. never come to me again. I will think this was my fault (not your anymore). bye"
First one has been treated as spam but not the second one even the second one is larger than the first one. And it also varies from words to words. What is the solution? Please let me know.
It depends on each particular Yahoo members spam filter and how they have been using it. Some people do not have it turned on at all, so it can not "learn" from how they use it. Others are more sensitive than others because they use it a lot. The bottom line it, that there is little you can do about it, it is up to the recipient to handle and deal with their spam and the spam filter they use. They must check their ’spam’ folder by going into the ’spam’ folder and check mark the item they wish to keep. Click on the ‘Not spam’ button and it will be returned to their in box, also allowing that address to be delivered to the in box from now on. However, they need to go in periodically and check to insure all items are spam.
Also, make sure that they have your address is in their address book, as it helps to ensure that address as a "safe" one.
